I found a sheet with both Cajun Craze and Pretty Peacock, so those became my card colours!
The inside has a piece of Pretty Peacock and a strip of the same pattern Designer Series Paper on the left side.

So Sorry Cheerful Daisies
Cajun Craze is one of the colours that I don't always reach for, so I decided that I was going to make a card with that colour! Then I looked for a package of Designer Series paper that had that colour in it! So I found my Fresh as A Daisy DSP and went to work.

Another Father's Day Card
I made a second card design for Father's Day again using the Exploring In Colour Cards and Envelopes. I had to use 2 of the card bases to cut out the different scene pieces for my fancy side step card. Thanks to Tami White for this card inspiration.
For the focal point of the card I needed to have one part of the image in the reverse or mirror image and I did this using my retired Stamparatus and a silicon mat. The girl on the left side is the one I stamped the mirror image of and then coloured and fussy cut with my snips.
This is a side step card with one cut vertically on the right side and a few score lines. (It could be used on either side of the card).

Father's Day
For Father's Day I used the add-on cards and envelopes and created a scene with the card bases. Thanks to Tami White for the inspiration for this card.
I opened up the card base and then cut it to fit my slimline cardstock base and mat. The image that I used for the front is from a stamp set that I stamped on basic white cardstock and then coloured the image with Stampin' Blends and fussy cut it from the cardstock. I added it to the card front with dimensionals and added the "Happy Father's Day" sentiment and some embellishments.
For the inside of the card I added a piece of the scene that I cut off at the top of the inside panel.

ICS Blog Hop - Punch A Bunch
Welcome to the Inspire, Create, Share Blog Hop for June 2023! This month our theme is "Punch a Bunch". We are showcasing our wonderful punches.
I have chosen to showcase 2 punches; the 2-3/8" Circle Punch and the Bough Punch for my card project.
There is a sale on our packages of Designer Series Papers this month. I have used one of the packages from the sale. For more information go to my website:
https://cards_by_elizabeth.stampinup.net/
(Click on Shop Now or Specials)
Here is the front of my card:
To make the inside circle I first added 3 colours of Blue ink to a piece of Basic White cardstock using a piece of Masking Paper and Blending brushes. I then punched the 2-3/8" circle that I added to the front. I also punched 2 of the flower stems from this coloured piece; one for the front and one for the inside.
